Quotes on Horantzau D'airy (FR)

It was a bit fortuitous, but if you're not in you can't win. I'm delighted with him and he'll continue chasing until the summer. Paul Marvel will do his best while the ground stays right.

Quotes on Reverend Hubert (IRE)

He had schooled very well, and the distance and the ground were a big thing for him. He is a fine horse and will keep going for the summer. He is better off jumping and likes to have fences in front of him. We'll look to Galway.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Another Choice (IRE)

He jumped very well and I'm happy with him. I was very happy with his work recently. He ran in Gowran a while back and the ground was too wet and he just couldn't get through the ground. The one thing I was happy with that day was that he settled. He has a tendency to get very lit up and very keen and hang. He's quirky. I was happy that he settled away in Gowran and didn't hang. I thought on his best form he'd have a chance. He won a maiden hurdle up here and he won a bumper (in Cork), so he's not a bad horse. I'm delighted for James. He did seven months over with Jonjo (O'Neill) and he loved it. He said he would come back for the summer with the option of going back next winter if he wants. He's a good lad and he works hard, he has a good head on him. I'm delighted for Michael Hannon (owner), he has been very patient with the horse and a few disappointing days. The horse has ability and he showed it there today.

Trainer Quotes

Quotes on Saylavee (IRE)

she disappointed in the north but has shown nice improvement and it’s nice to get some black type for her. Paul was very good on her and he ploughed his own furrow. He said she was a little dead going down to the start and in the early part of the race and he felt that she didn’t like being with horses.
